b. Semi Finalist of Tata Business Leadership Awards 2009. This competition is organized by Tata Group every year where Tata group employees submit their business ideas to Tata group. If the group finds the idea interesting, it takes it up further. My business idea has made it up to the semi finals, at the time when I had only 1.5 years of corporate experience.

Please let me know if I can make it to ISB this year. Along with ISB, I am also planning for Cornell, Yale, HEC - Paris, NUS. Do I have a fair chance to get into these universities?

Also, please provide your other comments which may be useful for me in preparation.
